Thanks for this info video. We are not close by but do you know some reputable company near North Hampton New Hampshire ? We want to explore an eco water system for our home. Also our water is very brown - not sure if eco water can solve this. Thanks!

Can I use a water softener with a septic system?
@AngelWater

Yes, you can use a water softener with a septic system. You may want to invest into a high efficiency Water softener like the Ecowater unit because it will put the least amount of salt into your septic tank.

Thanks for the video. Do we need to worry about Sodium build up now on the pipe, etc...?
@AngelWater
@AngelWater Жыл бұрын
Not at all. Sodium will not build up on the insides of your pipes. In fact, they'll be less salt and a glass of water than there is in a slice of white bread. Thank you for your comments.

I have questions. Hope you can help...I just bought a cabin in the county with a well and it has hard water. It has a GE SmartWater GXSF40H. It was completely empty of salt. I cleaned the salt chamber and put 3 bags in to fill it about 2/3 up. Only been here 2 months and we hadn't ran this thing so didn't know what to expect. I programmed it and ran the instant recharge mode. I have no experience with a water softener system. I watched a bunch of videos to gain some knowledge. I noticed that there is very little media in the brine tank. I shined a light in and saw the bottom with a float. How do I know if the correct level of media is in the brine tank? I read reviews on this model where it malfunctioned a the beads went out into the houses water system. maybe thsi happened before we bought the house?? How can I check to see if it is working properly?

If you can take the control valve off the top of the water softener, you will be able to see how much media is inside the tank. On a GE water softener they are filled almost all the way to the top. These units only last a few years. Sounds like it’s a little old and may need to be replaced with a professional grade system.

Should my salt tank be full of water? Our water seems to be hard no matter what settings we try. It's almost as if it's putting water into the tank, but not pulling it back out to clean the beads. Is this normal?

we have well water, it regenerates every 14 days, is that too little?
@AngelWater
@AngelWater Жыл бұрын
The regeneration is usually based on the quality of your water and the water usage. Every 14 days may work fine. Are you getting white film buildup on your dishes or shower stall? If so, then you may need to reduce that timeframe.

It's sodium bicarbonate not salt after the brine feed incorporates with resin.

Aren't there softners that just use salt, no resin beads?
@karstenpriebe4887
@karstenpriebe4887 8 ай бұрын
No. All water Softeners use resin beads. The only purpose of the salt is to strip the hardness from the beads.

Water has calcium, resin strips calcium, salt removes said calcium from resin so it can repeat again...... what did you not get?

​@@jbrogert In a water softener, the resin acts as a medium for ion exchange to remove calcium (Ca²⁺) and magnesium (Mg²⁺) ions, which cause water hardness. The resin is composed of small beads made of polystyrene sulfonate, which contains negatively charged functional groups called sulfonate groups. These sulfonate groups attract and hold onto positively charged ions (cations). Mechanism of Binding: Sodium-Saturated Resin: Initially, the resin beads are saturated with sodium ions (Na⁺). Sodium ions are positively charged, but they have a lower charge density than calcium or magnesium ions. Ion Exchange Process: When hard water flows through the resin, the calcium and magnesium ions in the water, which have a higher charge density (+2), displace the sodium ions on the resin. This occurs because the sulfonate groups on the resin have a stronger attraction to the divalent calcium and magnesium ions than to the monovalent sodium ions. Calcium and Magnesium Binding: As the calcium ions (Ca²⁺) contact the resin beads, the sulfonate groups bind to them. This ion exchange replaces the sodium ions with calcium ions on the resin. Since each calcium ion has a +2 charge, it can replace two sodium ions. Release of Sodium Ions: For every calcium or magnesium ion that binds to the resin, two sodium ions are released into the water. This is why softened water contains more sodium than the original hard water. Regeneration of the Resin: Over time, the resin becomes saturated with calcium and magnesium ions and can no longer effectively soften the water. To regenerate it, a strong salt (sodium chloride) solution is flushed through the resin. The high concentration of sodium ions in the brine displaces the calcium and magnesium ions, allowing the resin to be resaturated with sodium ions and ready for another cycle of water softening. The ability of the resin to bind calcium and magnesium ions is essential for reducing water hardness, improving the performance of soaps and detergents, and preventing scale buildup in pipes and appliances. i love ChatGPT, i can ask it to explain it so nicely. Let me know if i need to ask it to type it out for you on a toddler level, you seem to need it.
